00:00:06,530 --> 00:00:08,697
Ladies and gentlemen . The ceremony is 

3
00:00:08,697 --> 00:00:11,170
about to begin today with a change of 

4
00:00:11,180 --> 00:00:13,210
command ceremony between Colonel 

5
00:00:13,220 --> 00:00:16,079
Roberts and then Colonel Myers . A 

6
00:00:16,089 --> 00:00:18,311
change of command ceremony is more of a 

7
00:00:18,311 --> 00:00:20,533
time honored tradition . Exchanging out 

8
00:00:20,533 --> 00:00:22,533
commanders , the new commander will 

9
00:00:22,533 --> 00:00:24,811
take on the responsibility of the unit . 

10
00:00:24,929 --> 00:00:27,268
The outgoing commander was Colonel Dean 

11
00:00:27,278 --> 00:00:29,334
Roberts . He was a great commander , 

12
00:00:29,334 --> 00:00:31,334
really enjoyed his leadership , his 

13
00:00:31,334 --> 00:00:33,445
mentorship and I know he'll be moving 

14
00:00:33,445 --> 00:00:35,556
on to a new assignment and I wish him 

15
00:00:35,556 --> 00:00:37,667
an assignment well . And the incoming 

16
00:00:37,667 --> 00:00:40,099
commander is Colonel Myers . My 

17
00:00:40,110 --> 00:00:42,277
training , Phil is real simple . If it 

18
00:00:42,277 --> 00:00:44,332
doesn't kill the enemy , protect the 

19
00:00:44,332 --> 00:00:46,332
force or change behavior , it's not 

20
00:00:46,332 --> 00:00:46,319
worth the resource . I look forward to 

21
00:00:46,330 --> 00:00:48,552
training my soldiers especially for our 

22
00:00:48,552 --> 00:00:50,608
upcoming mission , which is going to 

23
00:00:50,608 --> 00:00:53,310
support the Defender 24 exercise . I'm 

24
00:00:53,319 --> 00:00:55,430
happy to be back in the seventh MSC . 

25
00:00:55,430 --> 00:00:57,152
It finally get to be a brigade 

26
00:00:57,152 --> 00:00:59,263
commander . It's taken 25 years to be 

27
00:00:59,263 --> 00:01:01,319
here and I thank all the people that 

28
00:01:01,319 --> 00:01:01,540
